If im being honest, iv never liked going to group, it just isnt my thing. Before I was pregnant, I did it at home on my own and this forum for support. The help I got from the guys off hear was amazing and there was no question I couldnt ask, I genuinly couldnt have done it without Minimins.
Iv now gone back to group meeting as I stopped SW, but found im putting on far too much weight with this pregnancy and already have 4 stone to loose, without any extra baby weight on top, but the main reason I went back to group is becouse im pregnant and wasnt sure how to follow it when expecting. I found a small group on a Tuesday Night that was in a small church ....Small = less people. The second week I went, I had to go to a diffent meeting & have to do so for a further 2 weeks, its in a school & much bigger & to be honest, I hate it. I lost 2.5lb last week, & whilst I know its a fantastic accheivement & dont get me wrong, im over the moon with it, I hated it when I was centre of attention while she mentioned my loss & I could have just died when I got a round of applause.
Group isnt for me, If im motivated enough, as I am now, I can do it from home with Minimins, but untill youv tried it you will never know. I would say definatly go to group & give it a try, if only for a few weeks while your new, least then yopur Consultant will be checking your meal tracker every week to tell you ware youv gone wrong or how you could improve
